We replaced a 16-year-old Electrolux front load washer with this one. It has a larger capacity drum so we wash in one load what used to take us two loads. We have used the normal cycle with the stain pretreat, it works well but takes 62 minutes which is a lot longer than the old washer. The quick wash works well but you have to limit the number of items you wash, since there is no way to set the water level. Overall we are very pleased with this new washing machine.
